<strong>Auckland</strong> is a foodie mecca with a wide range of restaurants, bars and cafés to<br />
suit every taste and budget - the diverse choices reflecting the city’s melting pot<br />
of cultures. From fresh fish and chips at the <strong>Auckland</strong> Fish Market to fine cuisine<br />
at one of the many harbourside restaurants, there’s plenty to choose from.<br />
The city fringe suburbs of Ponsonby, Mission Bay and Parnell all offer great food, wine<br />
and people watching. If you fancy a day trip further afield, visit the scenic village of<br />
Matakana north of the city, known for its vineyards and local organic produce.<br />
WINE<br />
rEGIoNS<br />
<strong>Auckland</strong> is surrounded by<br />
wine regions, each distinctively<br />
different. Matakana lies less<br />
than an hour to the north,<br />
Kumeu is west and even closer.<br />
Just south lie the wineries of the<br />
Clevedon Hills and out in the<br />
Hauraki Gulf there’s Waiheke,<br />
the ‘island of wine’.<br />
